Minutes turn into hours, hours into days, days into weeks, and before I've been able to take a deep breath a month has passed. It's been a month since my husband ended up in the ER and spent 12 more days having more test done that you can possibly imagine. They botched a simple biopsy procedure and killed him once, but he's a fighter and wouldn't go and I surely wouldn't stand for that ~ and he knows better than to leave without giving me a kiss. And sooo our battle begins ~ again! We are fighting "Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor Carcinoma". Steve Job of Apple Computer lost his battle with this rare disease, but we
WILL NOT! We will seek all the treatments available to us and perhaps Germany is in our future since I've researched much good work being done there on this cancer.
We are moving forward and trying to get back to some sort of normal routine (even amongst the abnormal routine) and we look at each day as a blessing. We both miss our lives as we knew them and carve normalcy, but we don't wonder too far from each other... although we've always been that way for the last 30 years.
Thank you all for your wonderful support, your loving thoughts, prayers, gifts of hope and just being there for both of us. I hope soon to catch up with all of you and see what wonder and creativity you have been up to.
Thanks everyone for dropping in to view a small piece of me and my colorful and rusty world.

Dear sweet SSQ-I have been thinking of you + don't want to pester you wih my e-mails etc. But I am keeping you both in my heart + prayers.xxx Soraya
Soozee, I am in tears! I am so very sorry, just wordless and that is not like me at all. I know some great smoothie recipes if you need anything like that? Only the good die young, I think that is why I survived! Please contact me if I can be of any help at all. your friend, Jerry
Keeping you both in my prayers and thoughts, SZQ.
I am struck dumb by your news. Have been thinking of you so much. Holding space for you and sending prayers and white light. ... and love xoDonna
SZQ - sending you positive healing vibes. Go well on this difficult journey. Love and peace to you both. B
You and your DH will certainly be in thoughts and Prayers as you wage war on this health challenge! Remember to also take good care of yourself GF... with The Man having been in poor health for over 12 years I know only too well how we can neglect ourselves when a Loved One is battling serious illness.
Hugs... Dawn... The Bohemian

It was so good to hear from you today in the New Year. I know that you're missing Junquing... and may I suggest that as difficult as it may be for you... set aside some "Me Time" all the same to Restore your Soul. Since The Man and both of my Parents had been battling Serious Illness for many years I had to learn to take the time for Self as well, so that I could continue to be strong and in a good place in my head. I'm still keeping you in my Prayers and sending Healing Energies your way. Hugs... Dawn... The Bohemian
